Adidas or Nike? Who Will Become France's New Kit Supplier?
The president of the French Football Federation Noël Le Graët this weekend announced that the French Football Federation will soon open negotiations for a new kit deal.
"All of our contracts with our partners binds us until 2018. The one that we will watch very closely for a consultation in the coming weeks it is that of our supplier. The others, I think of Carrefour or PMU, are with us every day. There is no reason to fear that they will not continue." said FFF president Noël Le Graët.
In 2009, the French Football Federation signed a back then record-breaking 9-year kit deal with Nike worth €45 million Euro per season, replacing previous shirt sponsor Adidas.
France's Nike Kit Deal Expires in 2018
The current Nike kit deal with the French National Football team will expire after the 2018 World Cup in Russia.
"This negotiation [Kit Deal] is more complicated because there are only two or three large suppliers worldwide. The contract that we signed in 2009 was the best in the world. But Germany now has better one with Adidas (€50 million per year). We are happy with Nike and Nike is pleased with us. But there is also the money. We will discuss before the opening of bids for the tender", continued Noël Le Graët.

Harrogate Town 26-27 Home Kit Released
Harrogate Town has officially revealed its new home kit for the 2026-2027 season. Produced by technical sponsor New Balance, the latest primary strip offers a bold and modern twist on the club's traditional yellow and black colors. Following the recent reveal of their striking geometric away jersey, this home release confirms that New Balance is committed to delivering highly bespoke and eye-catching designs for the North Yorkshire side's upcoming campaign.
The New Balance Harrogate Town 26-27 home shirt features a vibrant yellow base, anchored by thick black vertical stripes across the front of the torso. However, instead of traditional solid bands, these stripes are executed with a modern, pixelated halftone gradient effect that fades heavily around the midsection to seamlessly accommodate the black "envirovent" sponsor logo. To ensure a cohesive and sharp aesthetic, the New Balance manufacturer logo and the official club crest are both applied in a sleek black and yellow monochrome finish.
The launch completes the team's set for 2026-2027.
